Marta Pozas Exhibition

Location: Nika Art Gallery, Málaga
Date: From November 15 to December 6
Opening date and time: Saturday, November 15. 7:00 PM

In a world where everything is increasingly planned and staged, we invite you to a showcase where spontaneity plays a predominant role. Marta's instinct and innate talent act as a rapid filter, allowing the authenticity of a shot that loses nothing on its way from the photographer's eye to the portrait. If you are tired of so many photos affected by manipulation that almost borders on the obscene and you want a bit of truth, this is your exhibition.

“24 Faces” is the third solo exhibition by Marta Pozas, an artist based in Málaga who proposes a way of looking driven by instincts. Photography is the medium to approach the world around her. The exhibition is curated by Rocío Verdejo.

“I chose to understand the world on my own, I invested a lot of time in my solitude to turn it into a warm place, a center to always return to. Over time I realized that the world I had built inside my eyes had to be shared. It was impossible to understand life without the other.”

To put words to what Marta Pozas does is to talk about Documentary Fiction. Looking outward to search within. But she cannot look without doing something. Her gaze alone intervenes, and here comes the mastery of doing self-referential work without leaving a trace in the final image.

Marta uses photography as a means of approaching the other, the one she chooses. And she chooses through an encounter without searching, a search without strategy, strategy without strategy. She proposes photography as an alternative language, in case the language of the other was not the same. The camera is not fooled by anyone. Because when it comes to portraying the truth, whether it's the truth of the portrait artist or the portrayed, there is truth, and that is what reaches the viewer.

Marta Pozas photographs so quickly because she does it from the gut. “And let it come out as it may,” but not from chance, but from essence. Therein lies the value that makes the mix of colors and formats feel harmonious from the concept: that very exercise of personalizing values, of wanting to capture a feeling in a frame.

A language in which all body parts are a face. That normalizes what is not normative, seeks the beauty of incorrectness, achieves counterposture, and brings out what is in front of what is behind, today also from a shy authorship /// * Text by: Rocío Verdejo

 

Marta Pozas (born in Cáceres, 1999) graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Granada (2017-2021) and holds a Master's Degree in Interdisciplinary Art Production from the University of Málaga (2022). After completing her studies, she began working in various fields of photography such as portrait, tourism, press, editorial, documentary, as well as in film shoots in the art department, where she connected in another way with the cinematographic language and the work and involvement she saw behind the films.

She has participated in several exhibitions and film festivals. Among the most notable of these activities are: the Award from the Contemporarte Contest 2022; Award from the II Social Photography Contest of the Murcia City Council 2022; selected at the Málaga Film Festival 2023 with the short film "Er coraje"; and nominated at the Plasencia en Corto Festival 2023 with "Déjà vu." She has also been published in Docu Magazine (2024). She holds individual and collective exhibitions, including "Generation without Claw" and "Tooth Puller," and has also participated in the collective exhibitions "Green" (2024) and "Málaga Paradise" (2024).
